    This sitting was a resit for me as last time i got 49% and i feel that although i did horribly in this exam i know i did better than last time around so by that logic i should have passed

    I think it ended up as 8600-1500 as 1500 of the loss occurred post-aquisition

    So, 7100 as pre acquisition? In retained earnings you have 5600 as closing figure, then 5600-7100 as adjustment, right?

    Yes there were 3 out of 4 options to select;
    55% ordinary shares
    45% ordinary shares with remainder owned by small unconnected parties
    45% where the company would control operating policy

    Are you 100% sure avout this one? They had two 45% optiins, thats what caught my attention

    Looks like I did it all wrong.
    Q1 I deducted 1200 of deferred tax from Net assets of subsidiary this is why I got wrong -2200. I didn’t get negative goodwill though.
    I thought question 2 was very badly worded. I read it 3 times and I thought it sounded a bit odd that they want ratios as it continued but yet then to comment on HFS…. to be able to comment on it and compare I would think both before and after ratios should be requested.
    Question 3 I fond ok. However, I am not sure if I can say it as I did not manage to complete it. All I managed to calculate few things like contract, loan, assets and input few numbers. Not even everything because I run out time. So I have never managed to get what they asked for.
    MCQ – I didn’t find them easy, mainly because there is lots of calculation and as someone mentioned before few obvious no and then very similar answers that is difficult to say which one is right. To add time pressure and

    I didn’t find the exam easy at all. I would manage to complete it if I had extra 30 mins.

    Ok show your entire calculation to see if we are on the same page

    Correct me if I am wrong but the question went something like this

    So it said that the Parent sold some stuff to the Sub at a mark up of 35% to cost.

    They then said that cost to the “parent” I guess was 2.43m

    so I calculated it like this

    Cost + Profit = Total Cost

    The markup on cost which is equal to the profit element = 35% + 2.43m = 850,500 (that was my unrealised profit)

    I think I misread the question. Since if the cost they had listed was actually to the sub then it it would have been (35/135) * 2.43m = 630,000

    Which IMO would make more sense which would then account for my difference.

    Christa, what u had to do is just 2.43*35/135 and then subtract from parent retained earnings as PUP, thats it 🙂 it seems u got it right

    I got a profit of 3750

    So It was the cost Incurred (which I can not remember)

    The profit = Due from customer

    Less the amounts the client paid.

    I then recorded that as the contract asset. I did not add it to the 5000 that was there

    Costs incurred so far were15, u should have added progit to 15 and then substract invoices, but thry difnt give invoice, thats wee i stuck. They said client paid 10, so i assumed it to be invoce

    no got it wrong… based on what you are saying the cost that was on the paper was showing the cost to the sub and not to the parent..

    So you answer was 630,000 im assuming

    Mine was 850,500 because I thought the amount of 2.43 was cost to the parent… which meant that I did not have to calculate the profit element. Which means I deducted too much from inventory and deducted too much from retained earnings

    What did you get for your convertible. I got 2340

    Because the paren supplied the goods and they remained in subsidiary inventory, you have pup attributable to parent and calculate accordingly.

    Dont remember exactly the loan, but it was pretty straighforward

    I got that too.

    I assumed it was “paid” to so i didnt record a receivables

    Just the asset . But tbh thats an option you do not have to record the amounts separately

    You could lump it all as a contract Income

    you can have ownership by 50% plus shareholdings

    But there are other things to suggest power

    there was 1 with only 45% but he was able to govern the policies of the entity.
    That is therefore a sub to him too even though he onlt had 45%
